Looking back: Baby's schedule at 3 months

Schedule at 3 months? Non-existent based on my experience.

I actually tried to write it down once but on the very next day, only morning wake up time and night sleep time was consistent and that's because at 3 months, she practically established it for us.

I was feeding her non-stop then. I made it a point to feed her every 1.5 hours when we're at home where she has unlimited access to the boobies. That means I might end up feeding her half an hour after previous feeding if it looks like she wants to nurse.

When we're out, usually during the weekends, 1.5 hour was my normal guide.

I couldn't understand how mommies ended up waiting for 2 hours before the baby's next feed when Brie seemed to want to/need to nurse way before the 2 hour mark. The only time she'd stretch to 2 hours is during night sleep.

Toddler diet: breakfast sample

When my toddler's appetite spikes, I make sure I make the most out of it. Here is one of those breakfasts that Brie enjoyed and actually finished. It took a while - the whole morning - but hey, I'm not complaining! Brie usually sits down for breakfasts, gets full, then starts play time. An hour or so after, I make sure that same breakfast plate is within reach and she either nibbles while she plays or I sneak in a bite for her every now and then. Not pictured: a cup of orange juice, a cup of milk (with Nesquick), and a cup of water. I always make drinks readily available throughout the day because we are still breastfeeding and weaning very, veeerryy sloooowwllyyyyyyyy

Recipe: Brazo de Mercedes cups

I am not a real baker. I bake for personal consumption and sometimes, when they're good enough, I share with friends, family, and my husband's officemates. I also have an intense love for Goldilocks fresh  brazo de mercedes logs. I know if it's fresh. And I definitely know if it's not Goldilocks. So lately... I don't have access to Goldilocks and I'm not very good with complex recipes so I looked around and did an experiment aaaaand here we go! Wait.

DIY Felt Dress Up Dolls Series: Snow White

Brie hasn't actually seen Snow White. Can you believe that? It's on the list. She knows Snow White because of her 5-Minute Princess Stories and because of her Disney Princess Duplo Lego Set. I sewed the puff sleeves but I highly recommend gluing them on like Cinderella's puff sleeves. I just wanted to see how it would turn out sewn. This is what Snow White looks like assembled.
